Lee Fountain

Who knew that 100 years ago there was a fountain at Lee School, located just where the current one sits? Photos of the day show it operating with a plume of water. It is a mystery how such a fountain operated at that time. Did it re-circulate the water and if so, how? Submitted by Ray Harding.

  1. I would imagine that conserving natural resources never entered into the picture. With a recirculating pump unheard of, I expect the water went through the fountain and into the sewer.
